Angelina & Brian's Wedding
Elora Mill Wedding Photography
Once in a while you’re lucky enough to meet and work with a couple who not only truly values photography, but are willing to go the distance when it comes to capturing images for their engagement and wedding…
Angelina and Brian were one such couple! We first worked together on their engagement session which took place in Victoria Park and the Elora Gorge in the early spring. The stairs down to the river were in deep shade, and as such they were covered in snow and ice – but that wasn’t going to stop Angelina, who was in heels! We more or less rapelled down the stairs using the hand rail for support and made it down (and back up) unscathed – and captured some fantastic photos as a result!
Their beautiful wedding day took place in late October. Though it was a cloudy, cold, and rainy day – their wedding was the perfect testament that even when the weather doesn’t completely work out, you can still have the most perfect wedding day ever!
We started the day by capturing both Angelina and Brian’s preparation, then their hilarious first look – where Angelina put a spin on things by donning a Darth Vadar mask as she approached Brian. Myself and the videography team (Eksena Films) were stifling laughter as she surprised him! We followed the first look with bride+groom and bridal party photography in nearby Victoria Park. Though it was cold and rainy, we captured gorgeous (and often hilarious) photos! I love all the photos of their candid laughter!
Following the photo shoot was the ceremony, family photos, and reception – so much fun!!
It was truly a great day and I cannot wait to work with these two love birds again.
“Ema is FABULOUS. I discovered her online and couldn’t be happier I did. She is very responsive, down to earth and fun – from our first meeting we knew we’d get along great. She’s also up for anything – even climbing icy stairs to get the greatest shots. She worked so well with our other vendors the day of and it made for such an amazing experience. We just got our photos back and can’t wait to get some printed. We weren’t able to get all the shots I was hoping for because of the weather – looking through our photos I forgot all about that because the ones we got are so lovely. THANK YOU EMA!” – Angelina
